Currently most submarine and torpedoes can only go up to 40 knots – due to the resistance of the water. The Russians reportedly have a torpedo that can go in excess of 200 knots - but a speed of "several hundred knots" would appear to be impossible for human-built crafts. Marc, who runs a special effects company called FX Models that undertakes Naval contracts, said: “As a thankyou for doing some work for them Navy asked me if I wanted to go for a ride in a submarine so I said yes.
Once we got under I was sitting in the sonar station and the sonar operator was sitting right next to me. "Submarines are loud – people think they are very quiet and it’s true they are on the outside because the sound doesn’t get out. But inside you hear fans, noise - it’s a constant din on a sub.
“I was sitting there zoning out a little because I was sea sick and all of a sudden the sonar kid shouts 'fast mover, fast mover' and I’m jolted awake – thinking ‘What’s happening? Is it a torpedo?’ “The executive officer comes out and the operator shows him the path of the object and the officer says 'How fast is that going?' “And the kid said 'several hundred knots'. I start to lean forward to listen in – and the officer said ‘Can you confirm it?’ “So he goes to another sonar machine and confirmed it wasn’t a machine anomaly - it was real. I thought ‘Wow that is incredible’. “When the sonar guy said ‘What do I do with this?’ the officer said ‘log it and dog it’ - in other words log it and bury it.”
“I asked him ‘Can you tell me about the Fast Mover Programme?'" Marc explained. “He looked at me and said 'Sorry Marc I can’t talk about that programme'. “So he basically confirmed to me that the programme exists - he said everything without seeing anything. “What that told me was that USOs are common – we even have a programme in place to classify and log and determine the speed of them and it goes into a vault.”

there were 2 or 3 high quality very sharply focused shots of some ufo's/uso's hovering over water

Are you telling me Marc believes
in the existence of UFO's ?
I would have never guessed, it must have
been a good one because everything analyzed by
Marc has ended up in the explained category.
Mufon is weird right now
half believe in way out there ideas
and the other half are wound so tight
the call Astronaut Edgar Mitchell "Fringe"
Oh yeah ? He's an Astronaut, what'd you do ?
And yes Mirageman is right the pics are
inflatable Naval targets.
And yes I know Marc's was a story about a fast mover
USO.

what is mind boggling is that the uso that D'antonio experienced on the submarine was estimated to be going several hundred knots. I think that would be as fast as a jet, if I am accurate with mph guess, maybe 500-600+ mph.
